This document defines key ecological terms and describes different habitats. It explains that a community is made up of living organisms in a habitat. An ecosystem is a community interacting with its physical surroundings. A habitat provides conditions for an organism's development and is defined by physical and biotic factors. Examples of habitats described include deserts, rainforests, tundra, prairies, savannahs, forests, and marine and zoo environments. Niche refers to an organism's role and interactions within its habitat and ecosystem.

Habitats, Environment and Survival
1. A community consists of interacting organisms living in a habitat, while an ecosystem includes both living organisms and their physical environment.
2. An ecosystem can be small or large and is largely self-sustaining, with organisms finding essential requirements like light, temperature, gases and nutrients within their niche or habitat.
3. Soils contain various particle sizes along with nutrients and humus, which helps hold soil together and create pore spaces for aeration.
Ecosystem
An ecosystem is defined as the interaction between living and nonliving parts of an environment. Living things like plants and animals depend on nonliving elements like sunlight, air, water and soil to survive. Changes to one part of an ecosystem can impact other parts, such as a hurricane damaging fruit trees and reducing the food source for monkey populations.
What are the parts of the ecosystem
An ecosystem consists of all the living and non-living things in an area and their interactions. It includes biotic factors like plants, animals and other organisms, as well as abiotic factors such as soil, water and weather. Individuals make up populations of the same species, and all the populations that live in a given area together form the biological community. Ecosystems can range in size from small areas under rocks to large regions like forests.
Ecosystem
An ecosystem is a biological community of interacting organisms and their physical environment. It can be of any size but usually encompasses specific, limited spaces. There are three main types of ecosystems: freshwater, terrestrial, and ocean. Freshwater ecosystems include ponds and rivers. Terrestrial ecosystems include rainforests, tundra, deserts, taiga, forests, and grasslands. Ocean ecosystems include shallow waters, deep waters, warm waters, and cold waters. Ecosystems are complex networks of interactions between organisms and their environments.
Intro To Forest Ecology
This document provides an introduction to forest ecology, discussing key concepts and topics. It covers three major topics: site factors like climate, substrate and hydrology that influence forest composition; forest succession and changes over time due to disturbance; and natural disturbances like flooding, fire, wind, ice, insects and disease. Forest ecology examines how living organisms interact with each other and the physical environment in complex forest ecosystems.
Types of ecosystem
An ecosystem consists of the biological community and abiotic environment in a specific locale. There are three major classes of ecosystems: freshwater, terrestrial, and ocean. Terrestrial ecosystems include seven major types that vary based on location and precipitation levels, such as tropical rainforests, savannas, deserts, temperate grasslands, deciduous forests, coniferous forests, and tundra. Oceans cover most of the Earth and contain shallow ocean waters, deep ocean waters, and deep ocean surface ecosystems.
Ecosystems
The document defines key terms related to ecosystems, including environment, ecosystem, population, community, habitat. It explains that living parts of an ecosystem depend on non-living parts like water, air, sunlight and on other living parts for food. It provides examples of coastal redwood trees and foxes/rabbits to illustrate these relationships. It describes how a habitat must provide everything a plant or animal needs, using the example of a sidewinder snake in the desert. It defines a population as a group of the same species that live together, and a community as all living things that share a place. Finally, it explains how ecosystems can change over time, such as due to increased rain or a fire altering plant and animal populations
Ecosystems
Use evidence to support arguments that changing any physical or biological component of an ecosystem may result in shifts in the populations of species in the ecosystem.

Eco system
An ecosystem consists of biotic and abiotic components that interact with each other. Biotic factors include living organisms like plants, animals, and microbes, while abiotic factors refer to non-living physical and chemical elements like water, soil, sunlight, temperature, and minerals. Organisms depend on each other through food webs, with energy transferring between trophic levels from producers to primary, secondary and tertiary consumers. Ecosystems also cycle nutrients through the actions of decomposers which break down organic matter. Examples of ecosystems include forests, grasslands, freshwater and marine environments.
Ecosystems
An ecosystem is defined as living things (communities) and nonliving things that interact in an area. All energy in an ecosystem ultimately comes from the sun. Ecosystems differ based on factors like the amount of water, sunlight, and type of soil. Every community contains three member types: producers, consumers, and decomposers. Ecosystems can change due to natural causes like drought, disease, fire, or overpopulation, or due to human causes such as water pollution, air pollution, land pollution, or construction. Humans can help prevent ecosystem changes by using resources wisely, enacting pollution control laws, cleaning up litter, and keeping waterways clean.
Chapter 4 ecosystem
Ecosystems are made up of all the living and nonliving things in an environment. They consist of populations of organisms, communities of populations that interact, and habitats that meet organisms' needs. There are several main types of ecosystems including deserts, grasslands, oceans, rivers and lakes, and forests. Each ecosystem contains different plants and animals that are adapted to the environmental conditions.

Unit 2. Ecosystems
An ecosystem consists of living and non-living things that interact in the same area. Living things are organized into populations of species that belong to communities. Producers like plants use photosynthesis to produce food, while decomposers break down dead organisms, recycling nutrients. Consumers eat producers or other consumers, forming food chains that interconnect into food webs. Ecosystems exist in various climates worldwide, such as cold deserts, forests, grasslands, and rainforests, each with characteristic environmental conditions and species. Aquatic ecosystems also contain producers, consumers, and decomposers in both marine and freshwater habitats.
Biomes, ecosystems and habitats quiz 1
The document discusses biomes, ecosystems, habitats, and rainforests. It defines biomes as large geographic regions with distinct plant and animal types adapted to the climate. Ecosystems are composed of living and non-living things that interact in an area. Rainforests are located within the Tropics and have high rainfall, temperatures around 30°C, and soil that is shallow, acidic, and nutrient-poor. They contain 75% of the world's species and half of all animal species, with three canopy layers - emergent, canopy, and understory. Rainforests are important because they produce oxygen, store carbon, regulate weather, and contain substances that can be used for medicine. However, they are
Ecosystems by Group1
An ecosystem includes all living and non-living things in a given area that interact with each other. Each organism has its own role, and ecosystems provide vital life-support services to humans like food, water, and air purification. However, ecosystems have been disrupted by both natural disasters and human activities.
11 Ecology
Ecology is the study of the relationships between organisms and their environment. It involves interactions between organisms and both biotic (living) and abiotic (non-living) factors. Ecology can be studied at different levels of complexity, from the individual organism to the biosphere. Populations are dynamic groups of organisms of the same species that live in the same area. Population size and composition can change over time due to factors such as birth rates, death rates, migration patterns, and population density.

Tropical rain forest
The tropical rain forest can be found in three major geographical areas around the world. It has four distinct layers - emergent, upper canopy, understory, and forest floor. There are several types of rainforests defined by location and climate factors. Rainforests have a warm, humid climate with high rainfall. They provide many benefits but are threatened by habitat loss, climate change, and other environmental impacts. Conservation efforts include programs like REDD that use carbon credits to incentivize forest protection.
Habitate destruction
Habitat destruction occurs when a habitat is damaged or destroyed, reducing the environment's capacity to support the species living there. Key causes of habitat destruction include increasing food production, mining, forest fires, overgrazing, and urban development. The effects are widespread and include animal extinction, disruption of food chains, loss of resources, and increased pollution and climate change. Conservation efforts aim to protect habitats through limiting disruptive activities, monitoring environmental quality, and protecting coastal and marine areas. However, fully protecting the complex, variable environment remains a significant challenge.

Observability Concepts EVERY Developer Should Know -- DeveloperWeek Europe.pdf
Monitoring and observability aren’t traditionally found in software curriculums and many of us cobble this knowledge together from whatever vendor or ecosystem we were first introduced to and whatever is a part of your current company’s observability stack.
While the dev and ops silo continues to crumble….many organizations still relegate monitoring & observability as the purview of ops, infra and SRE teams. This is a mistake - achieving a highly observable system requires collaboration up and down the stack.
I, a former op, would like to extend an invitation to all application developers to join the observability party will share these foundational concepts to build on:

Artificial Intelligence for XMLDevelopment
In the rapidly evolving landscape of technologies, XML continues to play a vital role in structuring, storing, and transporting data across diverse systems. The recent advancements in artificial intelligence (AI) present new methodologies for enhancing XML development workflows, introducing efficiency, automation, and intelligent capabilities. This presentation will outline the scope and perspective of utilizing AI in XML development. The potential benefits and the possible pitfalls will be highlighted, providing a balanced view of the subject.
We will explore the capabilities of AI in understanding XML markup languages and autonomously creating structured XML content. Additionally, we will examine the capacity of AI to enrich plain text with appropriate XML markup. Practical examples and methodological guidelines will be provided to elucidate how AI can be effectively prompted to interpret and generate accurate XML markup.
Further emphasis will be placed on the role of AI in developing XSLT, or schemas such as XSD and Schematron. We will address the techniques and strategies adopted to create prompts for generating code, explaining code, or refactoring the code, and the results achieved.
The discussion will extend to how AI can be used to transform XML content. In particular, the focus will be on the use of AI XPath extension functions in XSLT, Schematron, Schematron Quick Fixes, or for XML content refactoring.
The presentation aims to deliver a comprehensive overview of AI usage in XML development, providing attendees with the necessary knowledge to make informed decisions. Whether you’re at the early stages of adopting AI or considering integrating it in advanced XML development, this presentation will cover all levels of expertise.
By highlighting the potential advantages and challenges of integrating AI with XML development tools and languages, the presentation seeks to inspire thoughtful conversation around the future of XML development. We’ll not only delve into the technical aspects of AI-powered XML development but also discuss practical implications and possible future directions.

HABITAT, ENVIROMENT AND SURVIVAL
- 1. HABITAT,ENVIROMENT AND SURVIVAL PRESENTED BY; SURAYYA MUHD LAMIDO 20122555 ECOLOGY
- 2. Explore the World Around You!
- 3. COMMUNITY A community is all the living organisms in a habitat. Plant communities that have many layers of vegetation can support more species of birds than a plant community that has a simpler structure.
- 4. ECOSYSTEM The system formed by a community of living organisms interacting with one another and their physical surroundings is an ecosystem. Community + physical surroundings = ecosystem
- 5. ENVIROMENT The sum total of all surroundings of a living organism, including natural forces and other living things, which provide conditions for development and growth as well as of danger and damage. Environment is the biotic and abiotic surrounding of an organism or population, and includes particularly the factors that have an influence in their survival, development and evolution.
- 6. HABITAT A habitat is an ecological or environmental area that is inhabited by a particular species of animal, plant, or other type of organism.It is the natural environment in which an organism lives, or the physical environment that surrounds a species population.
- 7. CONT… A habitat is made up of physical factors such as soil, moisture, range of temperature, and availability of light as well as biotic factors such as the availability of food and the presence of predators. A habitat is not necessarily a geographic area—for a parasitic organism it is the body of its host or even a cell within the host's body
- 8. Which habitats do you recognize? Desert Grassland Rain Forest Forest Tundra Prairie Marine Zoo
- 9. Desert Super-dry air Little rain – less than 10 inches a year High daytime temperatures Lots of wind Typical animals include insects, reptiles, birds, and various mammals
- 10. Rain Forest The Rain Forest is made of 3 layers The first layer is the canopy The second layer is the understory The third is the forest floor The Rain Forest contains about 45% of all animal species
- 11. Tundra Extremely short growing seasons (6 to 10 weeks) Long, cold, dark winters (6 to 10 months) Low Precipitation Snow provides insulation Wildlife includes birds, reindeer, foxes, bears, seals, and walruses
- 12. Prairie Temperatures vary summer to winter Moderate rain fall Seasonal drought and occasional fires Typical animal life includes jack rabbits, deer, foxes, coyotes, birds, and many other species
- 13. Savannah Warm, hot climates Major vegetation is grass Dry and rainy seasons Seasonal fires help maintain balance The Savannah is home to various reptiles, rodents, birds, and large mammals such as elephants, and zebras
- 14. Forest Covers 1/3 of the Earth’s area Dominated by trees and woody vegetation Precipitation is distributed evenly throughout the year Animal life includes many things such as bears, deer,and rodents
- 15. Marine Water covers nearly 75% of the Earth’s surface There are numerous species of plans and animals who live here. These range in size from microscopic organisms to the size of a 100 ft whale.
- 16. Zoo A place where people keep and display animals A man made habitat Zoos are important for 3 major reasons Recreation and education Wild life conservation Scientific studies
- 17. NICHE The niche of a species is that part of the environment in which the species survives, reproduces and is likely to persist.
- 18. Abiotic factors The physical environmental factors that affect the survival of organisms in fresh water include light, temperature, dissolved gases and nutrients.
- 19. Protect the wonderful world around you! Remember each habitat is a unique place where plants and animals make their home. What makes your habitat unique?
- 20. THANK YOU….
